Pat the fish fillets dry and rub with salt and white pepper.
Sprinkle dill on half of the fillets and close with the remaining fillets like sandwiches.
Beat the egg and put the rye flour on a wide plate.
Coat the fish pairs first in egg, then in rye flour.
Heat the butter and oil in a pan and cook the fish for 8 minutes, until both sides are browned.
Drizzle with lemon juice and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Dry the fillets with paper towels until the towel stays dry; a damp surface turns the rye flour pasty.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Prepare a simple Finnish plate with boiled potatoes, cucumber pickles, and dill yogurt.
